Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium head Green cabbage
- 0.5 medium head Red cabbage
- 3 large Carrots
- 0.5 medium Red onion
- 1 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Celery seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Cayenne pepper (optional for heat)
Instructions
Remove the outer leaves of the green and red cabbages, then cut them in half and remove the cores. Using a sharp knife, mandoline, or food processor with a shredding disc, finely shred the cabbages. Place the shredded cabbage in a large mixing bowl.
Peel the carrots and either grate them using a box grater or shred them with a food processor. Add the carrots to the mixing bowl with the cabbage.
Thinly slice the red onion into very fine strips and add it to the bowl.
In a separate medium bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, celery seeds, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper (if using). Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Pour the dressing over the shredded vegetables and toss thoroughly to ensure everything is evenly coated.
Cover the coleslaw and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Toss one more time before serving. Enjoy your 'One Hell of a Good Coleslaw' as a side dish or topping!
